- Forbes and Engadget shared the second trailer for the movie The Good Dinosaur, which has no dialogue, but looks epic and whimsical and touching, and features a sauropod as the protagonist
- BBC reported on why the public still likes to think of dinosaurs as scaly, instead of having feathers (because feathers are “just a bit comical”)
- Forbes wrote a piece about Richard Owen, the man who coined the term “dinosaur,” started the Natural History Museum in London, and debunked sea serpent myths
